An increase in diameter plays an important role. Check the difference in torque of the OEM exhaust manifold before and after the revision:

Blue color: before the revision
Red color: after the revision



The difference in power is 7 PS (JDM cars had before the revision 200 PS and after the revision 207 PS). I never understood why the NA cars got 5 PS.

The increase in torque has been measured also just by switching the exhaust manifold and get a tune. You don't need the red intake manifold or the other (internal) engine revisions.
